History
I started teaching guitar lessons out of my parents garage while still in my teens, only a few years after picking up this instrument.....continuing on and off on a part time basis (adding bass to my repertoire) until it became my primary source of income in 1996, a year after I graduated from Sonoma State University with a B.A. in Music. At that point I was teaching out of studios in two music stores in Sonoma County (Stars Music and Zone Music), both of which eventually went under at the peak of the recession, but were thriving much of the time I was there (I taught an average of about 40 lessons a week for over 10 years). Since moving to Walnut Creek in 2009, I've gradually built up a worthy clientele, teaching 8 years at The Jam Brothers Music Shop, now closed due to the owner retiring. My new studio location is at Lamorinda Music in Lafayette. I look forward to continue building strong, fruitful, & warm relationships with my clientele/students.
